Zhou Lang Zhou Lang

"You stay in the county for a few days, and I will add more guards to patrol the city. In a few days, after Bo Fu arrives, I will send him back to Wu County to recuperate." Seeing Li Mu looking sideways at him, Zhou Yu There was a pause in the voice, and then he explained one more sentence, "Yuan Shu's false name, Cao Cao wrote a letter for Bo Fu, asking him to be the prefect of Wu County, and concurrently lead Jiangxia, and attack the Marquis of Wucheng."

Whether it's Wu Jun Taishou or Wu Chenghou, it's just a false name.However, the current governor of Jiangxia is Huang Zu, Liu Biao's subordinate, but he has a feud with Sun Ce for killing his father.Cao Cao asked Sun Ce to seal Jiangxia, which is tantamount to expressing his support for Sun Ce's conquest of Jiangxia to avenge his father.

In other words, Liu Biao's Jiangxia County was exchanged with Sun Ce for Xuzhou, which had almost obtained more than half of it.In the name of filial piety, Sun Ce not only had to exchange with him, but also thanked him for his fulfillment.

It was really a good plan.

Zhou Yu explained the layer-by-layer relationship clearly and plainly.Seeing that Li Mu frowned and looked like he had suffered a great loss, he couldn't help but smiled slightly: "Although Xuzhou is rich, it is a place where military strategists must fight for the Four Wars. With the current strength of Bofu, it can be won for a while, but it cannot be won for a long time. In terms of governance, it is better to give in to Cao Cao and be a personal favor. Yuan Shao is a powerful general, and Cao Cao coerced the emperor to rank among the three princes. The two of them only wait for one to pacify Gongsun Zan and the other to recover Xuzhou. There will be a battle. If Cao Cao is defeated, we will Then send troops across the river from Wujun to attack Xuzhou again, and if he wins, I will take half of the rations in Pilubu this time, and the rest can be transported to Wujun for transportation. Opening the granary and distributing the grain to the people can be regarded as Cao Cao sharing some of my post-war benefits."

"You... Cao Cao was preparing for the battle against Yuan Shao. It was the time when there was a shortage of food. If you used his things to buy people's hearts, he would agree to that?" Li Mu could understand it, but in the impression of later generations, Cao Cao was very scheming. He is good at using troops and buying people's hearts. Lu Bu's food storage in Xiapi is not a small amount. If she does not believe in Cao Cao, she will not be able to see Zhou Yu's plan for the transportation of such a large amount of food and grass.

"So what?" Zhou Yu smiled calmly, "Yuan Shu is taking the title at this time, and he and Yuan Shao are competing for the position of general at this time and have a disagreement. A few days ago, Liu Bei wanted to attack Xiapi again, but it turned out that After being killed by Bofu, he fled to Cao Cao, and lived everywhere as the emperor's uncle. In the capital, although Cao Cao looked mighty, he was still trapped in the formation of tigers and wolves. He was afraid that Bofu would not respond, and asked him to lead the army again Conquering Xuzhou, but there are worries about the future. Why don't you give up a little food and grass!"

"You are taking advantage of the fire to rob!" Li Mu was amazed and waved his hands, "You are always good at this kind of calculation."

"Amu..."

Seeing that Li Mu raised his foot and was about to continue walking, Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment and called out to stop her.

After returning from Xunyang this time, he received news from Sun Ce that he had actually prepared two choices for Li Mu.

Either go to Xunyang with him, garrison Chaisang, drill the water army, point the front at Xiakou, and wait for the opportunity to fight Huang Zu.

Either switch to Juchao, live in his old house, avoid the Jiangdong generals, avoid the mighty battle, and fade out the name Sun Quan.

After staying for two years, everyone's impression of Sun Quan who shot an arrow in the city of Xiapi and traveled [-] steps, and then led his troops to rescue Xuancheng gradually faded away. What has changed, no matter how bearded he is, Sun Quan is not the blue-eyed and purple-bearded person Li Mu heard about in later generations. to doubt his identity.

In this way, Li Mu is Li Mu, and Sun Quan is Sun Quan—marriage depends on the person.

However, without asking, he could guess how Li Mu would choose.

But once Sun Ce arrives and Sun Quan is here again, she, the fake Sun Quan...would have to close the door immediately to thank guests, even if she was with the army, she would not be able to show her face in front of others again.

Li Mu is different from ordinary women, how can she do it if she is required to sit in the room all day without coming out?

Li Mu could see the probing intent in Zhou Yu's eyes, or he never thought of hiding it.

"Zhou Gongjin..." Sighing softly, and slowly taking a deep breath, Li Mu lowered his gaze.

Some things must be said eventually.

"You said that you want to marry me now, that you don't want to marry a family, that you have no two ambitions in this life, and that you don't have a second wife. I believe it."

Before the corners of Zhou Yu's lips curled up, she pursed her lips and showed a meaningful smile first, "But what about the future? Sister Qiao was sent by Fan Xu, you can send people to me without any scruples , what if Sun Ce sent it someday?"

"Bo Fu won't..."

Seeing Zhou Yu frowned, Li Mu immediately waved his hand and didn't let him finish: "If one day, the situation in Jiangdong is in crisis, a marriage between the north and the south is required, or the aristocratic family is required to contribute, so what should I do if I promise to marry you? What will you do? Will you ask me to compromise, will you say that the overall situation is the most important? At that time, if I don't agree, how will my brother deal with himself?"

Still not waiting for him to answer, Li Mu raised his hand and hooked the loose hair behind his ears, revealing his long eyebrows like peaks, and when the brows were lightly raised, his delicate and beautiful eyebrows suddenly became heroic: "I have never been a sloppy person. , but you will never hand over your future to others! Even if it is you, Zhou Gongjin!"

"I don't want to rely on you for everything, advance and retreat are all decided by your thoughts, and I don't want my brother to defend me in the future, and Sun Ce, or face-to-face conflicts with you. Difficult to pay."

"Wu County is close to the sea, so it should have the advantage of salt production. I know a method to make salt, which can use half the manpower to double the output. Danyang produces iron. I know a method to smelt it, which can obtain refined iron from a hundred refinements. Making a crossbow, not to mention four hundred paces, even a thousand paces can be tried. I can make a ship sail without a sail, and make a fire not extinguished when it encounters water..."

Thinking of the oil that has already seen initial results, she couldn't help but smile slightly, paused, and looked up at Zhou Yu, her black eyes shining like stars: "Whether it's fighting on the battlefield or managing people's livelihood, I want half of your future achievements to be mine. , I don’t want anyone’s attention, even if I stand with you, Zhou Gongjin, everyone in the world will think that you, Zhou Lang, have a single wife in this life, and I’m enough!”

At the beginning, she still said a sentence and paused for a while, but later, she spoke faster and faster, without stopping for a while, standing with her hands behind her back, her eyes were bright, the smile on her lips deepened, she was full of ambition, and there was a hint of agitation. Provocative: "I think so, do you still dare to mention the marriage contract with my brother?"

If it was said that she might have hesitated before, she has already given up all of it now.

If Zhou Yu agrees, then before Sun Ce arrives, she will push Sun Quan to the extreme, so that soldiers in the army can recall Sun Quan's name when they pick up their spears, and let everyone in Sun Ce's subordinates know Sun Quan's ability, but these Sun Quan He neither knew nor knew that he was the Lord of Soochow just like in history, as long as he wanted to maintain this "capability", no matter what he thought in his heart, he would not be able to touch her in the slightest.

And she is a woman, with such abilities, but she can't join the army or become an official, so the only way to do it is to marry into Soochow.

Her elder brother was Tai Shici, and Sun Ce was already married, so it was absolutely impossible to take her as a concubine. The only ones who could be called married into Soochow were Sun Quan, who was the same age as her, and Zhou Yu, who was worthy of Sun Ce's brother.

As long as Zhou Yu agrees!

And if Zhou Yu was scared away by her...

Seeing Zhou Yu's handsome eyebrows and looking at her with a complicated expression, Li Mu raised his eyebrows, slowly looked away, smiled self-deprecatingly, and slowly clenched his hands behind his back.

She has such a temper, and after more than 800 years, she is still ridiculed as a woman who doesn't know how to be gentle. How can she feel that a man who grew up in this era where women are used to being submissive and obedient can tolerate her shocking thoughts!

Then...that's all...

Or another day, she took these advantages and had a good talk with Sun Ce.

Unexpectedly, the sadness in her eyes was not enough to dye her brows, and there was a clear and long smile from her side: "In this way, even the heroes of the world will envy me, Zhou Yu, who can get a wife like this, and become a hundred thousand heroes!"

Li Mu turned around sharply, Zhou Yu's gentle and bright smile was brighter than the sunshine in the sky.

After being stunned for a moment, Li Mu also laughed.The sky is long and the clouds are thousands of miles away, just like a person's heart and mind, smooth and comfortable.No one cared about the small patch of cloudy clouds before. The crisp autumn air was not a chance for rain.

On the second day, for the first time, Li Mu openly stepped into the barracks when Zhou Yu ordered troops to gather generals, stood on the high platform with him, and paraded the battle amidst the sound of drums like rain.

After the battle of Xiapi, she was quite popular in the army.People who experienced this battle talked about it with great enthusiasm, and they had long spread the story of her shooting Liu Beizhong's army tent with great enthusiasm, but most of the soldiers transferred from Wu County did not believe it.After all, Sun Ce has always taken the lead since he led the army, and his bravery can be seen. However, Li Mu's arrow was mostly passed on by word of mouth. What he really saw with his own eyes was only a few scouts who accompanied the army at that time.

Therefore, when Li Mu showed up, he attracted everyone's attention.

It's just that she herself didn't realize it at all. Standing on the high wooden platform, the soldiers in front of her were lined up in formations. All obscured.

Zhou Yu was standing beside her, turning his head to her ear from time to time, talking about the distinction between command flags, formation changes, or the different meanings of golden drums and horns in different formations. Before that, Li Mu's heart swayed and he was speechless.

Of course she knew that it was impossible for the commanding troops among the thousands of troops to send orders by yelling like in some TV dramas in the previous life, but she never thought that the orders in it were so complicated.

The front army listens to the drums, and the rear army listens to the trumpet. The soldiers in each queue use different military orders and banners. If the battle between the two armies changes, it will all depend on the clear transfer of the commander's order.

It's no wonder that she only shot more than ten arrows that day, and the casualties caused were far less than Zhou Yu's one-round charge, but it could frighten Liu Bei's entire army-as the general Liu Bei fled first, no matter how many soldiers remained, Naturally, everything collapsed immediately, and the army was defeated like a mountain.

The whole day, the two of them whispered to each other, one spoke with a smile, preaching carefully, the other listened with his head tilted, and from time to time turned around to ask a question, and then showed a knowing smile. In the eyes of others, it was a scene of harmony between generals and generals , so that the morale of the army is even more encouraging.

After listening to the art of war for a long time, Zhou Yu waited for another day until the soldiers and horses were aligned. He left Lu Meng to garrison Wancheng, and he and Li Mu led three thousand soldiers westward by water and went straight to Xunyang.
